My brother's birthday is in early January and I should really learn to make his card in early December so it is ready to be mailed to arrive on time. I am hoping it made it this year!!! I used a piece of scrap paper which I created in an effort to not waste paint when I was working on other projects this past year. I just haul out a piece of white paper and keep adding paint until I am happy with it. Sometimes it takes several sessions to get it to be "right". I cut the paper to size, layered onto orange and then onto a large white card. I am hoping to make good use of my large envelopes this year in the creation of my family cards. I added a sign post (TH) which I die cut from white core black card, embossed and then sanded a bit to age it. It still needed a bit of something so I added some silver ink which did the trick. I used kraft cording to tie the chalkboard greeting to the sign and then glued this large element to my card front. I used 3D foam tape behind the greeting to give it a bit of dimension. Love the colours of this one!! Therese
